This is a rare opportunity to acquire freehold, 210sq metres of prime retail space (in a strata of 3) in the heart of Berrima. With Berrima, recently taking out Gold in Australia's Top Small Town Tourism Awards, the town is certainly booming! Locals and visitors alike, can't resist the appeal of this gorgeous village. With some of the southern highlands best restaurants, beautiful bushwalking trails along the river and historic attractions that whisper of our past, there is something for everyone here.
The Little Hand Stirred Jam Shop has been part of the Berrima village landscape for more than 40 years. Built in the 1950's - it has been an antique store and an ice creamery over its lifetime. The current owners specialise in home grown, Australian made, sourced from regional NSW and produce more than 80 products in their onsite kitchen. They have long established partnerships with many artisan producers throughout regional Australia.
The 'freehold' and the 'business', "The Little Hand Stirred Jam Shop", are offered together or separately. (SFX Business Broker - Peter Compton on 0498 618 466 - is handling the sale of the business, and can provide a detailed inventory and trading figures to interested parties).
Part of the strata is the recently renovated back courtyard, "secret garden", which is used exclusively by the jam shop and features a small nursery and has the potential for further cafe/restaurant seating.
Offering broad street frontage (one of the largest in Berrima), level access, 2 entrances, huge store rooms and off street parking, Hand Stirred is one of the best commercial premises for a food retail business in Berrima.
The premises were given a significant make over in 2016 that included a kitchen renovation, new equipment, new oak laminate flooring, custom joinery, paintwork, (interior & exterior), lighting and landscaping.
One of the most unique features of the shop is the original sandstone alter that came from Rose Bay Convent, the Kincoppal Sacred Heart school for girls. This was originally acquired in the late 1960's by the original owners of the Jam shop who were antique dealers at the time. The retail space has an inviting appeal with its vaulted ceiling and display cabinets that are a combination of antique and custom joinery.
Please call Di Dixon to discuss the freehold sale of the premises and to arrange an inspection.
